Failing to comply with a no entry restriction

Not sure if this is even worth an appeal. saw a parking spot
down a road and stupidly decided to reverse down the road to
park instead of driving around the block and was caught on
camera. Just thought I would ask in case there is anything i can
appeal on?

Thank you Hippocrates. So as far as I can see an appeal using
the wording below is what i should be using and nothing further
to do with the contravention?
"The PCN is missing mandatory information as provided at Para. 4
(8 ) (v) of
HTML https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukla/2003/3/section/4/enacted
(v)that, if the penalty charge is not paid before the end of the
28 day period, an increased
charge may be payable.
Clearly, this refers to Para. 4 (8 ) (iii):
(iii)that the penalty charge must be paid before the end of the
period of 28 days beginning
with the date of the notice;
Therefore, it follows that the statement: "If you fail to pay
the Penalty Charge or make representations before the end of a
period of 28 days beginning with the date of service of this
notice an increased charge of £240 may be payable” adds to the
lack of clarity by its omission. Even on its own, whether the
required information was included or not, it is also arguable
that it conflates the two periods using the word "or" which many
would view as being conjunctive. Furthermore, even if the
statement were to be interpreted disjunctively, there is still
no clarity due to the missing information. So, it follows that
it cannot possibly be interpreted disjunctively."

Sorry as I am always busy with live cases at the Tribunal and
have little time to examine videos. Other colleagues do. By all
means wait for their advice.
@stamfordman is an expert at this.

Having just looked at their video, I have to say this would not
come under de minimis, sorry to have to say. So you're better to
go with Hippocrates appeal grounds

Yes you're not going to get away with such an extensive
manoeuvre past clearly marked signage.
HTML https://i.ibb.co/JWnkpfJt/red-ezgif-com-video-to-gif-converter.gif
The traffic order will probably say something like this:
no person shall cause any vehicle to enter a length of road
subject to a no entry prohibition.
So there's no triviality here about being say at the entrance to
a road and just past the signs so the entry is made out.
